Wall Rock Cress (Arabis Alpina Rosea) - Wall Rock Cress is grown widely as a rock garden or ground cover perennial used for a bright spring display of a low-growing mat forming ground cover. Rock Cress flower seed produces plants that form a mounding cushion of olive-green leaves, bearing masses of sweetly fragrant flowers for several weeks. This variety of Arabis ground cover seed produces a range of pink shades from mid spring to early summer. Wall Rock Cress ground covers are drought tolerant once established. They require good drainage, particularly in the winter months. Shear plants lightly after blooming in order to maintain a bushy, compact habit. Rock Cress is an evergreen perennial flowering ground cover plant that establishes nicely from ground cover seeds.
